Hi All, We got an urgent business requirement to configure SLM Business Time Segment (BTS) with revised Week ends (Non- SLA days) as Reoccurring in weekly basis with frequency 1. We have to deploy this change by tomorrow evening (Friday).
Existing Available BTS - Having non SLA days as Thursday & Friday with 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM - (Available with Level 1) New requirement for BTS - For this week, three days are declared as weekend (27 -thu, 28 - Fri ,29 - Sat of June) and from next week onwards Friday & Saturday should be the week ends. I taught to configure by this way, Since both the BTS has Friday as common Non SLA day. 1) Changing the existing BTS end date and time as 06/28/2013 5:30 PM and save it. 2) Create a new BTS with same entity ID available in existing BTS with start date and time as 06/29/2013 8:30 AM and end date 1/1/2038 5:30 PM with Level 3 and save it. 3) Relate the new BTS with old Business entity. Now, old Buz. Entity will have two BTSes. 4) Rebuild all SLAs by selecting the old business entity once again. My concern is, What would be the effect on old incidents whose SLA due date was set based on Old BTS. What are the pros and cons of this. Nowhere I found a concrete answer in any docs/blogs. As per my understanding, Level 3 would override level 1. On rebuilding of SLAs would recreate new milestone filters and will exclude the calculation on Saturday (29th). The due date will be recalculated in SLM:Measurements form accordingly for older tickets. Also, the new tickets would act as per new BTS.
